Although Drayton spent a few years at Gunnery, he soon returned to his former stomping grounds. On entering our form, he renewed many friendships and showed himself to be a genial- and very humorous companion. Not only is he liked by his classmates, but he has also garnered the respect earned by hard work and excellent school spirit. Drayton may easily be recognized by his stocky build and hand- some features, which are usually hiding behind a pair of large dark glasses. His white MG. is known from Chestnut Hill to the far reaches of the Main Line. Socializing is no problem for Drayton, his tailor being joseph Condello. Drayton participates in many sports. He plays Ice Hockey, bas- ketball, track, and tennis, all with the same vigor. In tennis, he has particularly distinguished himself and as a result was elected team captain. There are three words which describe Drayton perfectly: A true Ace.

Tuton. During his thirteen years at Chestnut Hill he has proved himself a genial, well-rounded individual. Although Toot is a bit lethargic, he has zany ideas on how to ameliorate his present condition. However, most of his ideas are lost ir: the dust of a blue Ford careening in the school drive- way at 8:31 A.M. John's outstanding field is music. He plays five instruments, all with the skill of a professional. In addition he has a rich, bass voice and usually sings several solos at glee club concerts. This year john is the President of the Glee Club. When he is not directing this organization, he is usually practicing the bass fiddle, which he plays for the jazz band. A well-coordinated athlete, john has played on all our varsity teams. Baseball is his outstanding sportg a strong arm and a decent batting eye have enabled john to hold down center field for the last three years. john is especially noted for two things: His weight and his Ivy League clothes. He tries to gain weight by eating extra desserts but usually forgets his goal by getting into an argument or talking about his harem. His dirty white bucks and Ivy sport coat dis- tinguish him in a crowd.

I L 11' . ima 1' 4 , It l 955 Dud is one of the few boys in the class who has definitely de- cided on his future occupation: he is going to study medicine and has already begun work in that direction. As one of the leaders, Dud takes responsibility in stride and the class has shown its trust by electing him secretary-treasurer four years in a row. Persistence is one of Dud's best-known traits. It is especially evident in his scholastic work, he is seldom off the honor roll. His tenacious attitude pervades other fields too: he has never been known to lose an argument! A sound as familiar as the bell between classes is Dud's ringing, ribald laugh, which shows with gusto his hearty sense of humor. But more important is his school loyalty which is readily apparent in his service to the school as class officer, and especially in his athletic contribution. He has played baseball, ice hockey, and var- sity football for two years. Dud's extracurricular interests span the guitar, Glee Club, dra- matics, and the school newspaper. Further, he has more than the usual interest in females, and the feeling is mutual.
